Baby quilt

I’ve just completed this cot-sized quilt for my cousin’s baby, due next week.

Let’s hope that they don’t read my blog!  They are having a girl, which made it pretty easy for me since my stash is full of floral prints.  The chenille squares came from Jodie, as usual!

It’s backed with soft flannellette, and has pellon batting in the centre.  I have a few of these quilts, and use them mostly as floor mats.  The batting just makes them a little softer, and it washes well.

I really like the variety of textures in the chenille, and the beautiful soft colour combinations it provides.

I think that’s the last baby quilt for some time, thankfully – I’ve made about six now!
